While I respect the intent, I do think that you probably need to consider the reasoning as well. Putting black and white morality over actions isn’t necessarily correct either.
Poking fun at someone who is objectively evil over their appearance is “something” that an average person can do that might actually affect the person in question. It might not do anything, but it’s sure as hell more appropriate and effective than trying to point out the issue with their moral stance. You can’t always make a difference through peaceful or indirect means.
I think it’s important to point out that body shaming someone who isn’t a bad person is wrong, but it is also important to point out that for most people our words are our only recourse. You can insult a terrible person for one thing, while ignoring or praising the same trait in someone who is good.
I am of the camp that all rules should apply to everybody and that includes social standards. If it is wrong to say something to person A it is also wrong to say the same to person B.
But I am not American and idk who this person is and how he is “objectively evil” so I might be entirely wrong in this case.
